I find it an average gun. If i have an extra 5000-10000 i will definatly go for Diana 48/52/54 series or 460 magnum. 350 would be my last choice. I had broken 2 of my scopes with it, suffered droop problems, inconsistant behavior. Good for big game, not best for hitting bull eye accuracy

"King Of Kings"

you are right bro all of these problems are almost with all 350 mags. but you have to spend sometime with this gun to get a good controll,
for the scopes its a big headache to select a scope for this gun because of its heavy recoil,i am using original bushnell ellite 4200 (2.5-10x40) japan made on this gun which is almost the same price as gun,its a recoil tested scope on magum recoil and a very nice scope but the price is a bit high if you are going to use it on an airgun,
just spend some time with this gun bro and share your experiences,,,,,

@ hamdan khan

bro i will tell you something honestly and suggest you to not to use any scope on this gun,because its a brake barrel gun, most of the scopes work fine with fixed barrel guns. in brake barrel its a bit difficult to zro the scope and specially with this heavy recoil 350 magum.better go with the iron sights and try to make yourself comfortable with that.
you can save your money and get more accuracy
happy shooting

Try and get a single piece mount and a Mauser Airgun scope, it will work wonders though I have it with my 54 Airking

Try and get a single piece mount and a Mauser Airgun scope, it will work wonders though I have it with my 54 Airking

bro thanks for you input but i think there is alot more difference in between 350 mag and 54 airking. One of the main reason is the heavy recoil of the 350 mag and its brake barrel also,on the other side 54 airking is a sideleaver and having almost the minimum recoil of all the diana airguns,
so in my ponit of view its bit difficult to make a scope zero on 350 mag,and also according to my experiance,,,

you are right Dr sahib,putting a scope on 350 mag is like putting yourself in trouble,better to use it without scope,,,,,

Dear (king of king) plz tell me about the Diana 350 panther magnum which is in synthetic stock it have fiber optic sight can more accurate than iron sight in wooden stock.........

"King Of Kings"

07-03-2011, 11:17 PM

first of all its the matter of choice bro,
the sunthetic 350 mag is a beautiful gun also.the accuracy can be little bit more because of the fiber optic sites.
the main difference in iron sights and fiber optic sights you can notice in low light,in full day light its almost same thing.
I like the one with wood stock,because of its finish which is awesome.I am using it with a bushnell scope,and never used iron sites,but its accurate also with the iron sites.

Dear All,

I tell you that 350 is a very good and very accurate gun. You have to teach yourself how to use it. Its breaking in time is about 1000 pellets. All Leapers airgun rated scopes work well with it. The only problem of breaking the scope arise in those 350 which need a tuning to reduce vibration.

I think Harristch had to do it other wise no scope will work.

vibration is a main factor,reducing the vibration can save scop's life..

Dear no recoil what soo ever make it very simple just put oil of good quality in the gun and see there is no recoil what soo ever this gun Diana 350 magnum is highly recommended by al-sayad experience shop keppers and professional air gunners.. it is expensive because of its high quality

"King Of Kings"

10-05-2011, 05:40 PM

i am not so sure about making recoil less by using the good quality oil,but will give it a try,as untill now i havent oiled my gun,
about alsayad people i know some senior guys there personally they are from india,they are experianced shopkeepers for selling the gun but not in using the gun, but still its a good gun,,,no doubt,

With a break-barrel air rifle, there is no certainty that each time it is cocked that the axis of the barrel will be in same plane as the scope which is mounted on the receiver body of the rifle. This can be demonstrated on a rigid machined steel plate with a micrometer for taking measurement between the muzzle of the rifle and the steel plate. Cock,load and fire and take measurement. Do this a few times. You will see the evidence.

"King Of Kings"

11-05-2011, 04:14 PM

@ PF

you are right bro, i have personally noticed this thing in my gun,some time after cocking it doesnt shoot the same target twice,and i felt the problem is same as u mentioned above.that's why most of the air gun user suggest not to use a scope on a break barrel air gun,,
specially 350 Magnum is a heavy recoil break barrel air gun,the difference can be more noticed in this gun,,,
i suggest using this gun with open iron sights,

AOA, Dear Shahid sahib, how did you bring this gun from Dubai to Pak. Did you bring it via an air flight had you have any problem at airport in pakistan regarding bringing this beautiful gun? Last month i sent a BSA 4*32 telescope through mine colleague from Germany to Lhr airport. The cop on the board properly opened the bag, checked it and then allowed it. This time i will bring mine Diana 34 .22 with me in September :).

"King Of Kings"

21-06-2011, 01:49 AM

there are no issues bringing air guns from dubai, you just need to pack it properly in you luggage and if the air port security people will ask you about that just show it to them,,
you dnt need to pay anything extra for bringing air guns,,,,,,,

If you use open sights on 350, the best point of aim is at 6 o clock of the target. This will help you keeping an eye on the target all the time when you aim. This is the worst kind of sights on any gun.

Scope:

Scopes work very fine on 350 provided it is a magnum rated scope. There is no issue of sighting in due to the gun being break barrel. This gun is almost as accurate as any fixed barrel. Dampa mount is recommended to absorb the double recoil of the gun.

Best Option Peep Sight:

The best and sturdy set up is Wiiliams Fool Proof Peep sight. These sights are almost as accurate as 4X scope. These sights once installed, never move.

Note:

Please lube tune your gun with adequate lubricants in order to reduce the vibrations. It is a very hold sensitive gun hence an artillery hold is recommended for accurate shooting.

I hope this will help all.

Umair

350 magnum is a real scope killer broke two of my expensive scopes .I shouldn't have bought this gun at the first place my 56th has same power and 10 time more accurate .

Birdshooter007

22-03-2012, 08:07 PM

^Which scopes and which component of the scopes broke?
No offense, but when you used the 460M, you said it's velocity was same as your 2 years used Diana 35. The velocity of Diana 35 (earlier models) was around 550fps, newer one's (like you bought yours 2 years ago) is claimed to be 800fps for 31/34/35/36.. While a 2 year used gun would be around 600-650 as it falls in this period plus the velocity is greatly exaggerated. And the 460's claimed velocity in .22 is 1000fps.
Now you're saying the 350M and your 56TH have the same velocity, whereas the claimed velocity (Im only talking about .22s) of the 350M is 1000fps, while 48/52/54/56's is 900fps... have you checked using a chrono or something? Because I had the impression that the 460 is Diana's most powerful springer as written by many people.

Expensive scopes don't always work on such powerful magnum springers... and in many instances, cheaper optics/ammo/etc prove to be more beneficial/better than the more costly but 'less qualified' competitor.

That's why I chose one of the cheapest yet as said by the majority who've used it, "One of the most effective scope for magnum springers and big bore rifles", a Leapers 5th Generation scope for a dis-mighty sum of $81, quite happy with it till now - And quite happy with the 350M's accuracy till now!

The gun did damage to my bushnell scope as its ao adjustments is out of focus and my brand new hawke scopes cross hares moved to one side .as for 460 magnum there is a crony test on you tube thats shows after lube tune its doing 740 .i tested 460 several times as compared to my other guns in penetration in hard wood and 460 had same penetration as diana 35 this model is not listed in the diana web site or any where else it has even longer barrel then 350 magnum and very accurate plus its lube tuned very smooth,
AND please go to diana web site the claimed velocity of 350 magnum is 910fps,56th and 470th 890fps,and 48,52,54,460 850fps.But i have seen other peoples reviews on 460 magnum to have lot less power then advertised .

Last night i went to hunt pigs with 350 magnum ,i was alone and holding camera in one hand and placing barrel of the gun on the window glass and the shot placement went wrong due to recoil . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfLw4RxgLs4&feature=youtu.be

Birdshooter007

22-03-2012, 11:09 PM

Yup that's what I'm saying, the claimed velocity is MUCH lesser than advertised, and it's shocking that RWS/Diana is inflating velocities by as much as 150fps /more/less... The velocities of 350/460 on Pyramidair and Umarex are 1000fps and 460 is said to be Diana's hardest hitting springer.
Diana/RWS 31/34/35/36 (and any other such 30ish) they make are more or less the same things, with the same power plant and velocity.. and NIBs are said to be shooting at around 715-730fps, and after 2 years use this may sink down in the late 600s (>650), shocking once again that a NIB 460 was shooting in this range...the only thing I can think about after this is that Diana is turning into Gamo (just like Gamo Shadow 1000 was popular as a budget gun and a well performing one, but the Whisper and other newer models completely screwed the image up, and velocities are exaggerated alike)... Weihrauchs, Beemans, Airforce's, Benjamin's, Crosman's, W&S's, Hatson's might be gaining sales if Diana continues like this.

Was this boar adjacent to E-7 (at the boundary of the jungle)/Faisal Majid road? It's quite boar and jackal rich at night. They aren't even frightened of humans.

22-03-2012, 11:26 PM

Yes you are right about the place of the shot,I went to test the gamo socom 1250 and 1000 at islamabad store last evening and did the penetration test for both the guns and compared it to diana 460 ,34 ,31 and 350 magnum.socom 1250 had most penetration second was diana 350 and then shocking to me socom 1000 same price as whisper comes in third and then diana 460 34 31, Then out of my curiosity i asked him to test diana 35 t06 and its penetration was same as gamo socom 1000.Pellets used for testing gamo magnum .

The only way to be sure of speed is crono. Then you know for sure what the power of any particular is. You can not just shoot at a wooden plank and look at the penetration test. You guys need to invest in a chronograph.

I did ask my brother to bring chrony but the smaller one that you have is not accurate that's what the shop owner in uk told my brother and the other one was very heavy and expensive,And trust me the penetration test works very well if you have enough guns to compare.

SALAM BROTHERS.
The only way to be sure of speed is crono. Then you know for sure what the power of any particular is. You can not just shoot at a wooden plank and look at the penetration test. You guys need to invest in a chronograph.
SH TARIQ UK.
Did this penetration test from 50 yard with bsa storm pellets .
The guns used were Diana mod 350 magnum TO6 almost new,mod 56th about 5 months used,mod.35 TO5 2 years used but working better then new and mod 36 TO1 which has been with me for years and did my last dove hunt of the season with it.And the results are clear regarding the power of the air guns.

I did a experiment with my 35 that's why i did this test .When i bought this gun it had about same recoil as 350 and was hard to cock it was still the same after two years so,i opened the gun and sprayed rusto nil on the spring and lubed some of the parts ,now the gun has almost no recoil and is very smooth to cock also more accurate after running some dry patches through the barrel.the gun was so smooth that i was worried that it might have lost power but its enough power to punch hole in hard wood 50 yards away with 15.5 g pellets.guns with less power like mod 45 that i have will only scratch the surface at that distance.

A gun dealer has a sale going at my end. I am tempted to buy the 350 Magnum in .177 for the equivalent of Rs. 25K. The 350 Magnum in .22 is not on sale but is priced the equivalent of Rs 34K. The 350 Panther Magnum in either .22 or .177 is priced the equivalent of Rs. 33K. I already have a 34P in .177. If I get the 350, I will unload the 34P.

If you decide to get 350M in .177 just use heavier pellets like Beeman Kodiaks and Eun Jin.

The following was my reply on another thread to a PG member who complained about 350 Magnum's problems with accuracy and scope eating :p so i thought i better share my views here as well, can be helpful for those who may have access to the US market in some manner or can arrange the below mentioned products over here :)

" the problem with most people who have the 350 megagnum is that they tend to invest a fortune in scopes but ignore the importance of the mounts. What i have learnt that on this particular gun one does need a bushnell or hawke or leupold etc all you need is UTG (leapers) mount for RWS break barrels and a leapers 5th gen scope. read through the following blogs/articles/reviews by expert airgunners and you'll understand why. I think i should also post these links to the 350 magnum club thread, can be very informative and provide a cheap alternative (only drawback is to find those pieces though )

Yes there was a used 52 for 18k tried it ,but did not buy it cause it was about the same power as my diana 35 and 36 not a huge difference in power and its a bulky and heavy gun.Its better in accuracy as compared to break barrel air guns. According to the chrony tests i did with 14.3 g pellet here are the figures of different airguns.diana 35 690fps,diana 350 mag 790fps,diana 56th 780fps,hw80 760fps and bsa s10 pcp 860fps.

That 52 was quite a used gun was doing around 690fps a new one should go around 720 to 740 with 14.3g pellets .right now 470th have not arrived yet ,56th is a great airgun it is most accurate spring airgun and easy to be accurate with only draw back is its weight ,pcp is some thing else ,light weight,10-shot magzine,small in size,more power and extremely accurate .so pcp is my favorite for off hand shooting and with rest 56th . I use a stage 4 hand pump to fill the gun.

jog3ee

31-05-2012, 04:31 PM

how much did you get the pump for??? I was considering a Hill pump and benjamin maurauder setup but it was going beyond my budget without a scope :/ $400 for the gun and $ 290 for the pump.. add a decent scope and pellets & you're talking another $200 :( My wife is travelling to US next month but i dont wana burden her with carrying all this stuff along with my little one :p

Birdshooter007

31-05-2012, 07:30 PM

Make that 10k pellets. Don't think any spring gun could ever reach that number. Still instead of kissing it goodbye you can free 2,000rs to buy a new one.

where can i find the UTG and 5th generating scope for my 350mag.does anyone know where to find these
5th generating? I don't know about that but 5th generation ones are available in USA exclusively. Same with the mounts.

Yes I don't know why PG is a place where the same thing would be discussed every day if not hour.
BTW just got my RWS 1 piece lockdown mount yesterday - yeah the same one youre talking about. Replaced my Diana 1pc mount (the 8000rs one from Baksh Ellahee) it kept sliding a little back after a couple of hundred shots and I noticed it was not a lockdown mount...

No point in 48/50/52 they all suck. 54/56 are one to look for.
Well it's a point to ponder that all big wig online retailers like pyramidair, umarex, airgundepot, airgunsofarizona, airgunpyramid, airgunsbbs, bla bla have written with their 350 adverts that "It was tested at 840fps with 14.3gn lead pellets) and Diana claims them to shoot at 920fps.
And if I remember you saying your 56th shoots at 30fpe (in the airgun wildboar hunt thread) I claimed it should be around 25. Sadly, the specs you provide, are evidence that your 56th is achieving JUST 19.3fpe.
- And your tested 350 (and I believe mine too) at a low 19.8fpe.....OMG Diana sucks ****. And us shooters were soothed by it being a 24-25fpe springer.
- Also your test shows there is just a minimal difference b/w the ft/lbs of Diana magnums and Weihrauch HW80, if this is the case then Weihrauch all the way due to it's superb accuracy.

Chauhdary bro can you provide me the links where i can find out the rules about what can be carried in the luggage in the US?? From what info i've gathered, there isnt any issue with carrying even firearms in your luggage you just need to inform your airline and the the airport auhtories at the time of check in. The firearm must not be loaded and contained in a hard case along with the accessories and ammo if any. and carrying a scope, mounts or pellets in luggage isnt an issue i reckon!

31-05-2012, 10:23 PM

And you're right! i watched so many chrony videos today for 350 mag, mod 48 and 52, and 54 airking and the average FPE delivered via these rifles ranged between 18.5 fpe - 21 fpe such disappointing real world figures :/.... However i DID come across 1 brand that delivered (in some cases overdelivered :P) what it claimed, and it was HATSAN. Its .22 cal (mod 125) shot a little over the claimed 1000 fps with RWS hobby pellets 11.9 grains and close to 950 fps with RWS super points. Thats comes to a whopping 25-26 fpe at the muzzle.

I am not an US law expert so sorry, I can't provide you with the links. I am just sharing my experiences.
If you go through the thread above, it can clearly be seen that I myself have stated that it's allowed to bring a FIREARM from the US so what issue would an airgun be.
As you know USA has over 50 states, each have different laws. My cousin brought his Benjamin Marauder, Weihrauch HW100, and a Glock 17 from Chicago O'Hare Int'l.
I asked a relative of mine coming from JFK just 3 days ago to get me some 5000 pellets, he talked to the NYPD and they said YOU SHOULD NOT EVEN THINK OF DOING SO, you even wear Burqa so having pellets is serious - and rules for Pakistan should be changing everyday, shouldn't they? They must be getting stricter for Afghanistan and Pakistan, recurring.

Scope and mount aren't ammo?!? So they can be brought just like I got mine.

I wouldn't suggest a 95 Corolla over a 2012 Corolla, why? It's obsolete. The 48/50/52/54 they are literally the same power plant about the same as 56, but they have VERY HEAVY RECOIL. They're as bulky as 54/56 so why get lesser accuracy.

And you have answered my unasked question as well :D im so relieved to have read your post, as my better half is going to CHICAGO :) and she doesn't wear a burqa :p so i reckon even an airgun shouldn't be an issue to carry. Can you PLEASE do me a favor and ask your cousin about the procedure he went through (if any) before carrying his airguns?

Birdshooter007

31-05-2012, 11:05 PM

Yes I've asked him the procedure already. You have to fill in a form at the airport security desk or whatever....maybe fill a homeland security form Atleast 15 days prior to you departure. In that, you have to write down what weapon you're carrying, how much ammo, reasons, background, or whatever (don't know the exact). It's a relatively new rule, as back in the late 80s and early 90s my elders got pistols from the shop sat on the plane and came home, LOL!

I couldn't find any clear law on this particular issue on the net, I think the best option would be to ask your relatives (if any) in Chicago to go to the airport and ask about this issue, they'll guide you perfectly and would be able to tell the complete procedure...even could be that you don't need all this! But better get it inquired at they airport.
